Watch Out for the Hand Hygiene Police!

Hand hygiene observers now have a new tool to record your hand-hygiene behavior more efficiently. iScrub Lite is an application for the iPhone and iPad to monitor hand-hygiene compliance. Instead of using old-fashioned pencil and paper, observers can now record your compliance or non-compliance with a swipe of the finger. Observation data can then be emailed or exported to a spreadsheet.
Call us skeptical, but we don’t think this will make anybody wash their hands more often, although it is a noble initiative.
Press release: Do health care professionals perform hand hygiene? UI has an app for that…
